POLICE VULNERABLE SECTOR CHECK

  • ALL bench staff (coaches, managers and trainers) MUST have a current Police Vulnerable Sector Check (VSC) from the Ontario Provincial Police.
  • Police checks are valid for 3 years.
  • Verify the expiry date of your current VSC by referring to your profile on the Spordle website (see below for instructions).
  • Once completed, a copy is be given to the RMHA Director of Risk & Safety - discipline@russellwarriors.ca, who will enter the date of completion into the eHockey website.

  1. Complete this RMHA_VSC Application Letter AND have it signed and dated by an approved RMHA Board of Directors.
